Almond Coconut Milkshake

June 23, 2014 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

Collective Bias Disclosure

Summer is here and that means we are all turning to cooler foods and drinks to help beat the heat. One of my favorite desserts in the summer is a milkshake. Milkshakes are so delicious and can be made in so many different ways. We were all talking about our favorite candy bars the other day and I decided to try and make a milkshake to mimic one of Mathlete’s favorite. Creating this almond coconut milkshake was fun and was so easy thanks to Silk Almond Coconut blend that I used to get a really delicious coconut flavor. {Hint: search #collectivebias and #SilkAlmondBlends for even more almond milk recipes}

A delicious milkshake with all the coconut and almond flavor of your favorite candy bar. #shop #SilkAlmondBlends

For this milkshake, I used a combination of Silk Almond Coconut Blend and Silk Almondmilk Protein + Fiber. Both gave the milkshake a delicious almond flavor with just a hint of coconut added in. I love the idea of the extra protein and fiber I was adding into this sweet treat too. I hadn’t seen the Protein + Fiber version of Silk Almondmilk before but I was visiting Safeway for something else and stumbled upon it in the dairy aisle.

Coconut Almond Milkshake
Author: Shannah @ Just Us Four
Ingredients
  • 1 banana sliced and frozen
  • 1/2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup Silk Almond Coconut Blend
  • 1/2 cup Silk Almondmilk Protein + Fiber
  • 1/2 cup chocolate frozen yogurt or ice cream
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract
  • 3 Tbsp shredded coconut divided
  • Sliced almond {optional}
  • Chocolate shavings {optional}
Instructions
  1. Add banana to blender and pulse once or twice to roughly chop. Add cocoa powder, milk, frozen yogurt, almond extra and 2 1/2 Tbsp shredded coconut. Blend until smooth. Pour into cup and top with shredded coconut, sliced almonds and chocolate shavings.

This milkshake is the perfect combination of almond, coconut and chocolate. The banana is the perfect sweetener but it leaves absolutely no banana taste. Trust me on that one…I can taste banana in practically anything it is put in and I couldn’t pick out the flavor! Silk almond milks provide the perfect balance of almond and coconut flavor. Plus, it tastes delicious and is has so many great nutritional benefits.
